MAYKESTAG T‑slot cutter DIN 851 AB — 36 mm, HSS‑Co, cross‑tooth, Z8

A MAYKESTAG T‑slot cutter DIN 851 AB engineered for slotting in structural, case‑hardening and quenched‑and‑tempered steels, plus short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals, for reliable production use

• HSS‑Co construction for high wear resistance
• Cross‑tooth geometry for improved chip control
• Conforms to DIN 851 AB, Type N
• Cylindrical shank with drive flat for secure clamping

Consistent slot quality for industrial production

The combination of a 36 mm nominal diameter and an 8‑tooth topology delivers a steady material removal rate while maintaining surface integrity in slotting operations. The cobalt‑alloyed high‑speed steel (HSS‑Co) substrate resists heat and abrasive wear, which extends tool life in continuous machining. When paired with appropriate spindle speeds and feed per tooth, the cutter sustains repeatable groove dimensions in demanding batches, reducing rework and stabilising process capability.

Efficient chip formation and machine compatibility

The cross‑tooth arrangement promotes short, controllable chips, lowering the risk of built‑up edge and improving evacuation from the slot. This geometry is particularly advantageous when machining short‑chipping non‑ferrous metals and case‑hardening steels, where chip shape affects surface finish and tool stress. The tool is right‑hand cutting and fitted with a cylindrical shank with drive flat, ensuring positive transmission of torque and straightforward integration into standard milling holders.

Clear specification for process planning

Key machine and tooling parameters are easy to plan thanks to the standardised design: the cutter complies with DIN 851 AB Type N, has a 25 mm shank diameter for conventional collets and is intended for grooves to DIN 650 width 20 mm. These characteristics simplify holder selection and fixture design, enabling faster setup times. The tool’s construction and geometry support stable cutting conditions, helping to lower cycle times and increase throughput in small‑batch and series production alike.

Practical advantages on the workshop floor

Beyond material compatibility, the tool reduces handling complexity: the standardised shank plus drive flat delivers secure clamping and consistent concentricity, translating to better dimensional accuracy in the finished slot. Durable HSS‑Co material combined with cross‑toothing means longer intervals between tool changes and fewer interruptions to production. For operations seeking to balance productivity with component quality, this milling cutter offers a robust and predictable solution.
